...regard to this we have two remarks to make: first, that in the most important particular the statement was absolutely wrong; and, second, that the whole matter was one which did not concern the general public in the least, and which, it is obvious to all, could not be published in a newspaper without offence to the two societies concerned. In the same paragraph was given the reputed criticism of members of the Faculty upon an article published in the last Advocate; from our knowledge of the person who furnished this batch of misrepresentations to the Advertiser, we are strongly...
...attracting much attention just now at Yale, and should judge that both those who are in favor of continuing the old custom and its opponents have very strong feelings upon the subject. A writer in the same paper suggests that "Bones men" refrain from wearing their pins in public, in order to do away with the hard feelings in the Senior Class "which are due to the relations of Bones men and Neutrals."

Appeals...
...high tone to its old traditions, ceremonies, buildings, and even dress,* all of which tend to impress a boy with the importance of his position and the necessity of keeping up the honor and dignity of the school. One of the most interesting of the old ceremonies is the public supper in the great dining-hall (adorned with pictures by Verrio, Lely, and Holbein), which is attended by the Lord Mayor and Governor, in company with many distinguished gentlemen and ladies; as the visitors enter, the whole vast assembly of boys rise, and, led by organ and choristers, make...
